Bluey’s Quest for the Gold Pen Game Gets Launch Date

Bluey’s Quest for the Gold Pen, a new story-driven adventure game from BBC Studios, Ludo Studio and Halfbrick Studios, is launching on December 11 on the App Store and on January 10 on the Google Play Store.

The game comes from Joe Brumm, creator of Bluey, and Halfbrick CEO Shainiel Deo. It features an all-new story in which Bluey and her family are transported into one of her drawings. It is inspired by the hand-drawn worlds of the “Dragon” and “Escape” episodes.

In a conversation between Brumm and Deo that is available via BBC Studios, Brumm said, “In the series, we’ve created a mechanic where the kids draw, their drawings come alive and we see them animated. We’ve done that in a couple of really popular episodes, ‘Dragon’ and ‘Escape.’ So, we’ve established that mechanic in the minds of the kids who watch Bluey, so it’s not a big leap to the game’s storyline.”

Deo said, “I’m really glad that Joe introduced that mechanic of the drawn worlds. The shackles were taken off. They could create all these different prototypes, which they would never have been able to do in the real Bluey world. And that just allowed for us to build this amazing experience.”

“I want to see happy kids playing this game—smiling, loving it, showing their friends, telling their parents,” Brumm added.
